The foundations for an expansion of Herman Bern's Hotel Miramar, one aspect of the national government's subsidy to some of Panama's wealthiest people that's a part of the Cinta Costera project

One of the benefits that Bern derives from the Cinta Costera is that he's getting "compensation" for  one of Panama City's most laughable development mistakes, a marina that enclosed an area where  sewage poured into Panama Bay and thus created a particularly gross place to park one's yacht. The government is replacing this white elephant as if it were a viable business rather than an environmental and economic disaster.
